1. Machine learning

 Machine learning is a technique which enables computers to learn


automatically from past data.
 Machine Learning is an approach to train the models.
 Machine learning is helpful to predict the future values.

2. Model

 In simple terms, a model is a representation of reality.


 A model is created to do a specific purpose

Example
 General example, a world map is a model for this physical world or
universe.
o The creator of world map have done deep analysis, understands,
visualized with simple representation.

In terms of Machine learning,

 A model can be a,

o A piece of code or program


o A mathematical formula
o A program + mathematical formula

3. Train

 We need to train the model

4. How to train?

 We need to use data to train the model

5. Model learns

 Model will learn pattern from data.

6. Pattern

 Patterns means a simple knowledge gained during training.


 So, model learnt patterns from data during training

7. Before trained

 Before training model, model doesn’t know about the patterns.

8. After trained

 After training model, model knows about the patterns.

9. Test the model

 Once after model got trained then that model has to be tested to check
the accuracy.
 If accuracy is good than the model works well

10. Model deployment

 Finally we need to deploy knowledge acquired by the model


 These models also called as model fit

11. Towards target value or classifier

 Models learnt patterns from data towards target value.


 So, let’s try to understand what it means.

12. General example

 Assuming that one of my friend is introducing his friend as


o His name is Prasad working in X Company and having 3 years of
experience.
 When I heard about his experience I can guess/predict his salary (target
value).
 So, out brain is already trained to guess some attributes from past
data(old friends)
 So, we have patterns towards to target value

13. Smart application

 Once accuracy satisfied then we need to deploy the model.


 Once model deployed then that application will become as smart
application

14. Normal application

 Assuming that we have created an application by using


Java/dotnet/Python.
 It’s just called as normal software application because this application is
just works on instruction based.
 Instruct based means,
o If x value is greater than y value, then prints x value
o If x value is less than y value, then prints y value

Make a note
 Normal application cannot think like human to take decisions
 Normal applications cannot take own decisions

15. Smart application

 A smart application is an application which thinks like a human to take


the decisions.
 Smart application is intelligence based.

16. Use case

 Whenever you send email automatically Gmail application is predicting


weather it is a spam or not spam.
 That means Gmail application is well trained and captures the patterns
about mail type like,
o Spam mail
o Promotion mail
o Social media mail & etc
 So, Gmail application knows patterns about to recognize the type of
mail.

17. Accuracy testing

 Before deploying the model, it needs to be tested in lot of dimensions.


 If model is getting good predictions then we need to deploy.

Process in machine learning

 We need to train the model.


 During training model acquires the knowledge.
 This knowledge is called as model fit
 Once after model fit produced we need to test to check the accuracy.
 If satisfied with accuracy then we need to deploy the model

Data is important

 We need to train the model with data


 During this training model will go through the data and understand
the patterns about data.
 These patterns helps to predict the result on new data
